For the Italian version of the film, Bones and Skull have been renamed "Punk" and "Freak".

Homages to various Stephen King stories abound. The idea of a house that comes alive and eats people can be found in the third installment of King's [Dark Tower] series, The Wastelands. And while in the house's basement, Chowder shines his flashlight on a mechanical monkey much like the one found in King's short story The Monkey, collected in Skeleton Crew.

For the German version of the film, Bones, Skull and Chowder have been renamed "Punk", "Freak" and "Ketchup".

To keep the movie a PG rating, the victims that were eaten (Bones, the cops and the dog) had to come back to life during the end credits.
